Bio-Hazard Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I don't know how to say it.. dee oxey rhybo sss new klee ick acid. i dunno.. after learning multiple languages my brain is scattered. someone got a soundwave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonBlack Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 come on, just sound it out. ;p honestly, i have no idea how you're trying to pronounce it right now. Try a more standard pronunciation guide. I can tell you one thing though- 'sss' is never a syllable by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bio-Hazard Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 ose like in sugar? sucralose... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonBlack Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 sucralose? You mean sucrose, I can only assume. Try dee-OXY-ribo new-CLAY-ick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skye Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Biohazard, it's normally spelt, and said as, deoxyribonucleic acid nowadays. NeonBlack, sucralose is an artificial sweetener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonBlack Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 ose like in sugar? sucralose... sucralose is an artificial sweetener Is it sugar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skye Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 No, it is not strictly a sugar, as sugars are carbohydrates that contain only C, H and O. Sucralose is made by chlorinating sucrose, which is the sugar in table sugar. Sucralose is trademarked as Splenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dak Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 apostrophies seperate sylables, underlines indicate emphasis, dash = draw end of sylable out, and . = slight pause inbetween sylables: dee'ox'ee'rI'bow'new'clay'ic.a'sid " rI " is pronounsed as a soft 'eye' with a short, lower-case 'r' sound at the beginning, hence rI (or r eye, i suppose), as in riot or bride (not as in rib or frisbee) its normaly broken down into 4 'bits' when spoken: 'deoxy ribo nucleic acid', although iv heard it said with more emphasis on, and an elongation of, the 'rI' bit of ' rI'bow ' , with a little gap in before the 'bow', like this: deoxy ri-bo nucleic acid or dee'ox'ee'rI--.bow'new'clay'ic.a'sid or you could just pronounce it dee.en.ay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abeefaria Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I thought that any (most?) chemicals that end in -ose are sugars. So fructose is a sugar, right? So Bio-Hazard is correct in calling sucralose "sugar" but by not using "a" or "table" in front of sugar, he was being ambiguous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daecon Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 dee ock see rai bau noo klay ick ass idd Is better than Aluminium: "aloo min um" (American) vs "aloo min ee um" (English) and the letter "Z". Countries have gone to war for less, you know... ;-p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joerdz Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 DNA Is better than Aluminium: "aloo min um" (American) vs "aloo min ee um" (English) and the letter "Z". I live in america, and I think "aloo min ee um" sounds much cooler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daecon Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Yeah, we pronounce it according to the way it's spelt. It took me long enough to learn pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcano-coniosis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenoise Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 (Image taken from pubChem Project) As you can see sucralose is a modified form of sucrose with Cl in place of 3 hydroxyl groups. This prevents it from being metabolised. Also it can no longer be considered a suger, as was pointed out by Moleke, since it no longer contains JUST C,O, and H.

Daecon Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Does it react with sodium to make saltwater? Or is that just plain silly...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed84c Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 nice thinking, but i suspect thats unlikely. Weak HCL reacts with Na to make salt water, and that aint HCl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daecon Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Oh yeah. It's been too long since I did basic chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenoise Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Actually I think it would work. Though you'd get salt water with sucrose in it. If you put it in solution, first the sodium will react with the H20 (assuming a large excess of water) to give you NaOH (evolving hydrogen which would ignite instantly) which would react to give you sucrose plus NaCl. So you'd get salty sweet water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daecon Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 That's what I first thought, then I noticed that there wasn't any carbon in that molecule... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenoise Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Lol there is plenty of carbon Silly. In Organic Chemistry at every point where two black lines meet there is a carbon atom, plus if there is a line with no indicated atom on the end there is a carbon there. So if you count there are 12 carbon atoms total. On a side note once all the chlorine was used up the NaOH would start reacting with the sucrose to produce a Sodium sucrate salts, but there is already a post on that so I wont go into it.
